Self-assembling nanoparticles to assess multivalent interactions between influenza A virus hemagglutinin and glycan surfaces

This study uses self-assembling nanoparticles to investigate how multivalent HA binding affects influenza virus interaction with glycan surfaces, finding that valency and receptor density significantly influence binding strength and mode.

Predicting the conformational flexibility of antibody and T-cell receptor CDRs

The paper predicts the structural flexibility of antibody and T-cell receptor CDR3 loops using a new method trained on a large dataset of conformations.

Multimerization- and glycosylation-dependent receptor binding of SARS-CoV-2 spike proteins

The paper demonstrates that fully glycosylated trimeric RBD proteins of SARS-CoV-2 bind more effectively to ACE2 compared to monomeric or immaturely glycosylated variants.
